Example response returning step execution records for a workflow. The second entry shows a Human-In-The-Loop wait_for_input step that has been responded to: the hitl envelope is populated synchronously by the inbox respond path so every reader (Kibana Inbox UI, Slack, Agent Builder, raw API/MCP) sees a single canonical responder for the step.
